Category Description—Picture Framing (Central Coast)
We all love artwork. It’s the beauty of the world being created on canvas. That’s why we document our moments with photos. But it’s important that we don’t let them get all dusty and left to the rot somewhere in the garage or basement. That’s why we have picture frames. It’s the simple and stylish solution to preserving our treasured moments and possessions. It enables us to hang our artwork or memorabilia on a wall and be reminded of a particular artist, event or sporting team.
It’s not just artwork and memorabilia that we can frame. A photograph of that family day out at a picnic, or a trip to a famous landmark. We can keep it safe in a custom made frame or set frame and show it off to friends and family.
Frames also have a practical value. Mirrors look so much more sophisticated mounted on the wall with a decorative frame. Because frames are so common and practically in every home, people forget how many things you can get framed. If you have a poster of your favourite band and sticking it on the wall with blu tack isn’t good enough—getting it laminated and framed is the perfect addition to a room or even a gift for a friend.
Got an epic jigsaw puzzle? Spending hours trying to put together those 5000 pieces to make a picturesque masterpiece at the end. You can frame a jigsaw puzzle as well as other things you wouldn’t normally think would go in a frame.
Tapestries look beautiful when framed on the wall. Cross-stitch and needle-works are different types of art that can be framed but still add something different to your home décor.
Then sometimes you want a bit of a border between the frame and the print. That’s when a matboard comes in handy to add a third layer to the print or canvas. It’s a great way for people to immortalise those special pieces with a touch of class.
As for the builker items like sports jerseys, medals, coin collections, certificates and memoirs, your local Central Coast frame store will have a selection of box frames to accommodate those 3D objects.
Frames are the perfect home for beautiful artwork. For digital prints, stretched canvas and unique artwork such as indigenous art—galleries and homeowners alike can present their treasured possessions with flair.
